With the large number of poll suggestions you make it is not possible to offer advice on every one of your polls.
Please read:
FAQ: How to Improve the Chance of Having your Poll on the Home Page
Specifically:
...
2. Ensure that your first five items (a) have images (b) the image cropping is good.
We are dealing with technical issues related to cropping and it's bad when the very large home page images are cropped poorly. So, if necessary, reorder your choices - BEFORE YOU PUBLISH THE POLL - so that AT LEAST the first five options have images and are cropped reasonably. For instance, images with text on the bottom (titles) often don't crop well.
This is in addition to guidance that hb has previously provided:
• Polls with five choices, must have images for all choices.
• When a poll has more than five choices, the first five must have images.
3. Keep Poll Titles short and punchy.
4. Triple-check your description text for grammar, subject-verb agreement, use of plurals, etc. If the description isn't great, we have to do a manual override on your text for the home page.
5. Poll titles need to have initial caps for all words (except for "the" and other articles/prepositions) and they generally avoid exclamation points (too much like ad copy, alas). Generally, film and television program titles should be in quotation marks.
...
9. When in doubt about capitalization, use this online tool:
https://capitalizemytitle.com/
Capitalize My Title
Enter your title and select:
"Title Case" and "AP".
I strongly recommend that you use this tool for all of your titles.
10. The word sexy should not appear in the title.
11. Decades can be abbreviated as '10s, '20s, ... '80s or '90s.
In the specific case of the title for this poll, please change:
Face-off: The Lion King vs. The Lion King
To:
Face-Off: 'The Lion King' vs. 'The Lion King'

This could be a really good one. I keep records of poll suggestions that are applicable in the future and I try to keep track of them in a way that they come to my attention when a movie is released or something else changes to make the poll current but occasionally that doesn't work as well as I'd like so, whenever the live-action film is released, please try to remember to bump this. Thanks. : )
